785: Chapter 787 Die

Qin Xiao didn't give Lu Shaoxuan much time to be shocked before attacking him again.

The Hanhai Divine Halberd in his hand unleashed a sea Dragon, which opened its blood-red maw and bit toward Lu Shaoxuan.

"Damn it, who are you? Why are you attacking me?"

Seeing Qin Xiao continue his assault, Lu Shaoxuan became flustered and quickly activated the Black Tortoise Turtle Shell in his hand to defend himself.

The opponent had attacked him for no reason, and the excuse he had just used was extremely clumsy; it was clearly abnormal.

He couldn't help but wonder when he had provoked such a powerful enemy. Could it be an enemy provoked by his family's Old Ancestor?

"I, the Great Qing Emperor, have a grudge against your Old Ancestor. Seeing you, a little brat from the Five Elements Sect today, I've decided to teach you a lesson. Prepare to die!"

Qin Xiao spouted lies effortlessly, speaking nonsense while simultaneously launching attacks, driving the sea Dragon in his hand to bite onto the Black Tortoise defense opposite him.

With a loud cracking sound, the phantom image of the Black Tortoise shattered instantly, and the sea Dragon slammed into the Black Tortoise shell in Lu Shaoxuan's hand.

Boom!!

Lu Shaoxuan's body was sent flying backward by the impact, and the hands gripping the Black Tortoise shield were shattered, bones pulverized.

Utilizing the force of the blow, Lu Shaoxuan turned and fled into the distance. He knew he was definitely no match for this person; staying would mean certain death, and fleeing was his only chance of survival.

He circulated the mana within his body, gathering it into his hands to heal his injuries.

The recovery ability of a Martial Artist in the Quasi-Emperor Realm was astonishing. As mana flowed into his hands, Lu Shaoxuan's wounds healed completely, and he quickly recovered.

"Trying to run?"

Seeing this, Qin Xiao raised an eyebrow. Since he had encountered him, he certainly couldn't let him go easily. He had finally seized this opportunity; if he let the opponent escape, wouldn't that be a huge loss?

"Great Sun Tathagata Hand!"

Qin Xiao shouted, extended his right hand, gathered his mana, and struck out, slamming toward Lu Shaoxuan.

As his attack was launched, a sky-covering flame palm appeared in the sky, its temperature so high that it caused the space to distort.

The flame palm descended from the sky at extreme speed, striking toward Lu Shaoxuan.

Upon sensing the terrifying giant flame hand in the sky, Lu Shaoxuan's expression changed drastically. He held the Black Tortoise shield above his head and activated it with all his might.

Then, he charged forward regardless of the consequences. He knew he couldn't stop, or the opponent would catch up immediately. Once caught, he would surely die.

Rumble!!

The massive flame hand struck the Black Tortoise shield, followed by a tremendous explosion.

Soon, cracks appeared on the Black Tortoise shield, which was at the level of a Quasi-Emperor Magical Artifact. With a loud bang, it shattered, disintegrating in mid-air and turning into fragments.

However, this Black Tortoise shield had fulfilled its mission, successfully blocking this attack for Lu Shaoxuan.

"Damn it!"

Seeing this, Lu Shaoxuan gritted his teeth, feeling heartbroken. A precious Quasi-Emperor Realm defensive Magical Artifact had been destroyed just like that. The opponent's strength was simply too terrifying!

How had his family's Old Ancestor provoked such a terrifying enemy?

"What happened over there? Who is fighting? Such a terrifying aura!"

The commotion caused by the two fighting alarmed the surrounding crowd. They turned their gazes toward this side and immediately witnessed the scene.

They saw Lu Shaoxuan fleeing rapidly in front, with Qin Xiao chasing him from behind.

"What is going on? The one fleeing in front seems to be the Sect Master of the Five Elements Sect, Lu Shaoxuan. Who is the person behind him? Why have I never heard of such a powerhouse?"

Some quickly recognized Lu Shaoxuan's identity, but no one knew who Qin Xiao was, leaving them feeling uncertain and suspicious.

A Martial Artist at the ninth level of the Quasi-Emperor Realm was an absolute top-tier figure anywhere. There were not many such people in the entire Universe; it shouldn't be possible for him to be so obscure.

"I haven't heard of this person either. Could he not be a figure from this era? Is he a powerhouse sealed from another era?"

Many people speculated privately. It seemed there was no such figure among the powerhouses born in this era, and the opponent was clearly a powerhouse who Cultivated the Dao of Fire, which made the characteristic even more obvious.

But no matter how they thought about it, they had no impression of such a figure in their minds.

Under the eyes of the crowd, Qin Xiao unleashed another massive flame hand, reaching out to capture Lu Shaoxuan.

Seeing Qin Xiao's attack coming again, Lu Shaoxuan's expression turned extremely ugly. He took out a long sword once more, injected mana into it, and activated it.

After the long sword was activated, it immediately shot out a sky full of Sword Qi, slashing toward the flame hand.

"Ten Thousand Swords Return to Void."

Lu Shaoxuan exerted all his strength and used a secret technique to stimulate his inner potential, causing his power to sublimate to the limit, all gathered into this single move.

Boom!!

The endless Sword Qi was shattered. Although the power of the giant hand was weakened by more than half, it still struck toward Lu Shaoxuan with unstoppable force.

Qin Xiao did not hold back at all with this strike. He knew that the vitality of those with great Luck was terrifying and not easy to kill, so he unleashed his full power.

Ah!

Lu Shaoxuan let out a scream. The flame hand struck him, shattering half of his body. His clothes exploded, and his entire body was covered in scorched marks, looking miserable.

However, he disregarded his injuries and continued fleeing into the distance, while circulating his mana to heal the wounds within his body.

The vitality of a Quasi-Emperor Realm powerhouse was indeed strong. Even after suffering such heavy injuries, he still hadn't died and still possessed not-insignificant combat power.

"You cannot escape. You had better surrender obediently."

Just at this moment, Qin Xiao rapidly approached Lu Shaoxuan's side, and then unleashed countless flame chains from his body to capture Lu Shaoxuan.

The flame chains were incredibly fast, reaching Lu Shaoxuan's side in the blink of an eye and wrapping around his body.

"Bastard, wanting me to surrender is impossible. I will fight you to the death!"

Seeing that there was no hope of escape, Lu Shaoxuan hardened his heart. He circulated all his mana, compressing it entirely within his Dantian, intending to self-destruct and perish together with Qin Xiao.

Even if he couldn't drag the opponent to die with him, he would at least knock out a few of his teeth.
